Vegetable 6 Pack Container Garden Seed Assortment

This assortment features six vegetable seeds known to thrive in container gardens. While the tomato and pepper seeds are best started indoors 6-8 weeks before transplanting outside, all other seeds in this assortment are great for directly sowing into the soil after your last frost date. When container gardening, keep in mind the smaller the growing container, the faster the soil will dry. We recommend using the Max Water Retention Soil Mix to help your plants survive the summer heat!
